BELIEF WORKERS DISSATISFIED. POSITION IN N. CANTERBURY. Christchurch, June 15. Complaints about the Unemployment Board’s ration card system were brought before the benevolent committee of the North Canterbury Hospital Board to-day by a deputation from the Relief Workers’ Union. The men urged that the system had not proved satisfactory and suggested that the Government should be asked to hand over to hospital boards the money for the distribution of relief rations. The committee said that until tho end of this month it would grant charitable aid to men who had been refused rations and who were unable to support themselves. As to the case of single men who had refused to enter camps, the board would consider on their merits applications fo» relief from these men.
